F-4 Phantom II 1435FLT Livery Pack

1435 Flight is tasked with providing protection to the Falkland Islands from any air or maritime threats. The unit traces it’s lineage back to the Siege of Malta during World War Two, and the Flight’s heraldry embodies this.

The aircraft have tail codes as reminders of that time, F (Faith), H (Hope), C (Charity) and D (Desperation) along with carrying the Maltese Cross.

Included with this pack are examples of all Phantoms that served in the Falkland Islands with 1435 Flight.
